Felons Brewing Co. Autumn Feast

Overview

Beer, that refreshingly boozy amber liquid, is a versatile drink. There's a brew for every occasion, including a sit-down, multi-course, autumn-themed dinner. Sure, when you think about going out for a meal and pairing it with a tipple, you're usually thinking about wine. But don't discount a cold one with your culinary spread — the right beer matched with the right dish is quite the winning combination.

Trust a brewery to lead the way, with Felons Brewing Co hosting its first feast from 6pm on Monday, May 20. All five courses will come with just the right beer or cider, all of which has been brewed on the premises. And if you need more convincing about the merits of pairing these beverages with your meal, head brewer Tom Champion and Howard Smith Wharves executive chef Patrick Friesen will be on hand, chatting about the topic.

Tickets cost $80 — and as for what you'll be eating, get ready for the likes of Spanish mackerel ceviche with pineapple, compressed celery and crispy corn; grilled eggplant with black garlic, dill and parsley, and whole smoked salmon with rainbow chard and tarragon crème fraiche. Drinks-wise, an Aussie pale ale, a white stout and a mandarin sour are all on the menu as well.
